Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Saint Laurent Envelope Wallet On Chain? A: The essentials: a smartphone, slim cardholder or a few cards in the built‑in slots, keys, lipstick and notes/receipts. Capacity depends on how you pack; please refer to the Measurements and interior photos on this page for exact dimensions and layout.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and is the chain removable? A: Yes. The chain is designed for shoulder or crossbody wear and can be detached so you can carry it as an elegant clutch. You can also tuck the chain inside for a cleaner look when hand‑carrying.
Q: Will a larger phone (e.g. iPhone Pro Max/Plus‑size Android) fit? A: In most cases, yes without a bulky case. If your phone has a thick case or you fill all card slots, the fit becomes tighter. For certainty, compare your phone’s measurements to the bag’s Measurements on this page and allow a little extra room for ease of use.
Q: How many compartments are there inside? A: This model features a main compartment, a zipped pocket and multiple card slots. Please check the listing photos for the exact layout of this individual piece.
Q: How secure is the closure and will it affect my cards? A: It has a snap‑button closure that keeps the flap secure. There is no magnetic clasp in this model, so it will not demagnetise payment cards. Avoid overfilling to keep the flap aligned and the snap easy to close.
Q: Is grain de poudre leather durable and how should I care for it? A: Grain de poudre is a textured, grained calfskin chosen for its structure and scratch‑resistant finish. Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh cleaners and prolonged sun/heat or moisture, and store in its dust bag with light stuffing to maintain the shape.
Q: Does it fit a passport? A: Yes, a standard passport fits comfortably alongside your essentials. For best organisation, place it flat and avoid overpacking to keep the flap closing smoothly.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information on this page. For this piece, the box and dust bag are included. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Is the chain length adjustable? A: The chain is a fixed length for shoulder or crossbody wear. To shorten the drop temporarily, you can loop or tuck part of the chain under the flap; do this gently to avoid imprinting the leather.
Q: Is this item authentic and where was it made? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts. This example is labelled made in France; manufacturing origin can vary by production run across the style, but the label shown in the photos reflects this individual item.
